1850's Farmhouse
Old houses are nothing if not forgiving. We took advantage of this when we combined a few styles that the homeowner already owned. As this is a reading room, we wanted to offer a play on words, most literally, by throwing a simple gray rug on the floor adorned with prominent poets and authors. The table welcomes its new indoor life as it previously was used for weighing small livestock. The art behind the chaise is actually dyed lily pads dried and mounted on fabric panels.
